Provide a database password for the LAMPApp plugin

[quicksketch]

I'm trying out Probo CI today for the first time. I have to say, it's a relief to have a CI platform that actually includes a web server! And it works with PHP without any hassles! Definitely the easiest set up I've tried.

I ran into a wall when using the LAMPApp plugin: http://probo.ci/docs/plugins/lamp-plugin/

I specified a databaseName and databaseUser, which seemed to have worked fine. But then I got stuck. There's no databasePassword! How am I supposed to access the created database if I don't have a password? I tried just omitting the password and using the username as the password, neither worked.

From reading through

probo/lib/plugins/TaskRunner/LAMPApp.js

Line 90 in 35b6d10

addScriptCreateDatbase() {

, it seems I can short cut this entire username business by using the username root and the password strongpassword 🤦

I don't really mind the weak password (this is a temporary machine after all), but it's weird that there is a password at all. Why not just allow access to MySQL without a password entirely?

It doesn't look like the specified databaseUser is used at all, as the account is never created nor granted permissions (though the root user is).

That's a good point - we should probably create database users and passwords.

Is there a way to set no password? I know you can create a .my.conf file to prefill it with the cli client but I don't think there's a way to specify that no password is required. Though we could make the password an empty string which is roughly equivalent.
